Two bolts (one each side) at the bottom of the rear seat. Undo them, pull the seat (bottom half) up and it will dislodge from two tight plugs (may require a big jolt to pull them out). Pull that out of the way.

Two or three bolts holding the top half of the seat down the bottom where you have removed the other part of the seat. Undo them and pull it up out. Parcel shelf you carefully pull out (dont forget to unplug speakers). I dont think there is any bolts from memory just plugs that pop out.

Its very simple but just make sure you have un-done all bolts before trying to pop the plugs.

the first two bolts,

are they accessed from the boot or "under" the seat in the back

the only reason i ask is i dont have the car here and i want to suss this out so on the w/e when i get it i know exactly what to do

hey mate,these pics shud pritty much explain it all for you. the 2nd picture with the 2 half circles is about where the other 2 bolts are that hold the rear part of the seat in.the bolts are easy to get out but the clips on the bottom half of the seat will probly get you! i find it alot easier to use a very long screw driver as a lever inbetween the seat and the floor.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
